Wednesday, January 19, 2011 - Most surprised as to how good this Zin is.
Good tart fruits on the nose, tart rapsberry and boysenberry, leather and fresh tobacco, and other things I can't place. Spicy. Lovely balance, and not OTT. Fresh, with some zippy minerality. nice acid backbone, and even a little soft tannin on the finish. Neatly mineral, and a long long finish, wiht the fruits present still.
Slighty tidddly after hald a bottle of this stuff. Went well with homemade Tamales.
